Hi Tisa! welcome to the weekend! I try and learn something every day but just recently(Mon,Tues,) earlier this week my wife and I went to Casino for overniter,her birthday and to chill.I have really progressed in keeping a lid on my gambling fever by just staying away from the track,casinos,card games etc so I thought I could just 'chip" when playing the slots,games etc.and enjoy the down time.Wrong (,just like drugs) my obsession and compulsion to play is still as strong now as it was 50 years ago when I started playing cards,shooting pool,betting on anything.(my father was also a chronic gambler and a cop)It is that immediate gratification thing that most of us have a taste of.For me,sad to say ,abstinence is the only thing that works for me in my recovery.I could not"use a little bit" and as we know the disease manifests its claws in all areas of our lives so I know I must remain vigilante with even more effort next time thinking of "chillin" at the Casino!!!!Will I ever stop playing all together?Thats my 6th /7th step daily work!!! I'll have to dig a little deeper here and 'progress ,not perfection will have to move up a notch in this head of mine!!!!Have a blessed day.......
